Hi,
I recently bought a new computer (core 2 duo, 2.13 ghz, 2gb ram, vista
premium). Included with the pc were two vista disks, one 32 bit another 64.
I just deleted the pre-installed 32 bit version, and installed the 64 bit
version. To my surprise, all third party programs work so far.
But I noticed somewhat heavy swapping sometimes, why is that on a 2gb ram
system? The system ist a clean install. Is it due 64 bit? Does it take more
ram?
Oh and: Is there even a point in using the 64 bit edition on a pc that only
has 2 gb ram? Since the primary reason for 64 bit is to access over 4
gigabyte of ram.. are there other benefits than that?
